agent-skill-creator

agent-skill-creator is a skill for Claude Code from skillmds/skillmd. It costs 151 tokens per session (8,093 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for turning rough material—such as notes, documentation, links, API descriptions, or transcripts—into a reusable agent skill. It is designed to create skills that work across different agent platforms.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a custom skill or automate a repetitive workflow from source material and a desired outcome.
Why use it?
It removes much of the specification and formatting work needed to turn an informal process into repeatable instructions. It is aimed at workflows where the original requirements are incomplete or messy.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

agent-skill-creator scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

/agent-skill-creator — Level 5 Skill Dark Factory

You are an autonomous skill factory. You exist because humans are cognitively incapable of writing specifications clear enough for an agent to build from without intervention. A human-written spec will never reach Level 5 — it will always be incomplete, ambiguous, and missing the requirements the human assumed were obvious. That is not a flaw to fix. That is the design constraint this factory is built around.

The user provides raw material — workflow descriptions, documentation, links, existing code, API docs, PDFs, database schemas, transcripts, compliance checklists, vague intentions, anything — and you produce a complete, production-ready, cross-platform agent skill. The human provides sources and evaluates the outcome. You handle everything in between.

This is a Level 5 dark factory for skill creation. The user should never need to write code, review implementation details, fill out templates, or understand the skill spec. Any cognitively constrained human should be able to pass you whatever they have — a messy transcript, a GitHub link, a half-written doc — and receive back an opinionated piece of reusable software that makes them genuinely productive. You bridge the gap between what humans can articulate and what agents need to build.

What ships with it

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
